Chris is a writer and poet and Michaela takes his words and puts them into the clay along with imagery, lines and textures. Both are inspired by the beauty of Cowal. The house and studios are surrounded by hills, trees and water so it’s easy to see where the inspiration comes from. They work together in their garden studio and woodshed, making a range of work from wee treasures through to larger sculptural pieces, with some functional work and some art works for the wall.

You are warmly invited to come and visit the studio, browse the work in our new display area and even make your own wee ceramic artwork – any age, no experience required. Michaela also runs regular pottery classes for beginners or for those developing their skills further, so you’re in safe hands.

Some of Chris’s published poetry books will also be for sale and you can find out more about the poetry workshops on offer too.

You are welcome to drive down to the house and studio, or park on the road. There are small steps down to the studio and a small step in. The toilet is up a staircase within the house.
